The headquarters of the Progressive Guard was next to the palace, and Adolf quickly rushed over at Alfonso's order.

Hearing that he was going to pick up Na Four, Adolf was a little excited, obviously aware of the current situation in Paris.

Seeing this, Alfonso reminded: "Don't take it lightly, this is your first time on a rescue mission!" At present, there are definitely not a few people in Paris who want to hijack Eugène. ”

Not to mention the opposition, even Prussia may not be very happy, after all, after taking the four away, the Bonaparte family will have a way out.

This operation may not be a rescue, but it will not be easy.

Adolf nodded, turned around and left, he still needed to get in touch with Paris, plus the other party still had to pack up his property, he couldn't finish it in a week or two.

As soon as Adolf walked on the front foot, Antonio, the archbishop of Toledo, rushed over on the back foot.

The king had shown a miracle outside, and he, the bishop, wanted to come and see it.

"Your Majesty Alfonso." Antonio, 63, said respectfully.

In the past, the archbishop and the king were relatively equal, and by virtue of age and religion, the bishop was not much shorter although he was a head shorter.

But Alfonso is now the hero of Beelzebub, and whether or not Antonio agrees with this statement of the Vienna Church, the appearance must be unified.

After saying hello, Antonio went back and forth, and only when he saw that Alfonso was about to get angry did he say what he meant.

"Your Majesty, we have communicated with the Roman side and are going to build a sculpture for you in Rome and Madrid, and add two titles to you."

Antonio looked like an inviter: "How about the king of Spain crowned by God and the patron of Holy Rome?" ”

Alfonso was stunned, he guessed that the church might give some expression, but he didn't expect it to be so rich.

Needless to say, erecting a statue for a 14-year-old boy has rarely been heard of since ancient times.

The latter is not simple, and if the church officially announces it, this title can be written into official documents.

If accepted, then all letters from now on must be addressed as follows: King of Spain crowned by God, Patron of Holy Rome, King of Castile......

It seems to be a false name, but it's actually quite useful, and you have to have a buff of conservative opinion +20 anyway.

And in this way, Alfonso was able to change the name of the country from Spain to the Holy Kingdom of Spain.

The level of sanctity is at least one level higher than that of the Holy Roman Empire.

The title of HRE was originally given to the other party by the original Pope John XII in order to curry favor with the German ruler Otto, and he was given a total of two titles: Christian Emperor and Roman Protector.

It's pretty much the same as Alfonso is doing today.

No way...... Just thinking about it feels too sassy.

Alfonso is not a megalomaniac after all, and in Chinese perceptions, statues are generally erected when people die.

Therefore, his first reaction was to refuse: "How can this work, it's too ostentatious!" ”

"You were blessed by God and also put a stop to the chaos in Spain and protected Rome from Italy, all deserved." Antonio was stunned for a moment, then admonished.

But no matter what he said, Alfonso disagreed.

In the end, the two reached a compromise in which Alfonso accepted the title but did not change the name of the country.

Forget about the statue, instead build a triumphal arch in Madrid and Rome.

The former commemorates the Spanish Civil War, the latter commemorates the victory over Italy.

At the same time, a week after the Hofburg Conference, independent procedures were initiated across Italy.

This speed is already quite fast, unlike the Lombardy Kingdom of Venicia and Genoa, the Kingdom of Romagna is an artificially made kingdom, which has never existed in history, and there are many things that need to be involved.

Representatives of Genoa also came to Madrid to negotiate with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

They are not willing to spend money to buy back Spanish privileges, they just hope that Spain will also lower tariffs on them.

In the future, most of the trade between Spain and Genoa will be Spain's export of grain and raw materials, and Genoa's export of industrial products.

For this reason, Genoa offered that in exchange they would no longer use the Italian lira and would no longer issue their own currency, but would make the peseta their official currency.

Genoa was a neutral country and could not pay tribute, so it had to cede benefits to Spain in a different way.

If the pesetas could circulate in Genoa, Spain would collect a seigniorage for every dollar they collected.

Seigniorage is not really a tax, but refers to the difference between the denomination of a coin and its actual gold content (coins), the difference between the cost of coinage and the value of money (paper money).

At present, Spain's seigniorage accounts for 2.9% of the country's total revenue, which is much lower than that of Britain and France, mainly because not many people use peseta.

Faced with such a politically and economically influential proposal, Cruze readily agreed.

Of course, this was not enough for Spain to reduce tariffs too much, so Genoa also allowed a ship purchase:

Spain bought four frigates, a shore defense ship, two ironclads and a number of gunboats for £320,000.

This was most of the remaining Italian fleet, which became the "presence fleet" of the port of Genoa after the loss of Sicily, and there was not even coal on board.

Now that the independent procedures were initiated, they were immediately detained by the very responsive Genoese City Council.

The Kingdom of Sardinia was very annoyed, but it could not invade Genoa blatantly, so it could only call for Genoa to return through diplomatic channels.

Three ironclad ships, Genoa, returned one, but the Kingdom of Sardinia still did not give up.

Genoa considered that they were unreasonable, and that they might really sentence themselves back at a meeting in the future, and they themselves could not afford to raise a large fleet, so they sold it half and gave it to Spain.

320,000 pounds is still a big difference in the cost of two ironclad ships, not to mention the extra ships.

After the affairs of Genoa were settled, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs convened a meeting to hope that the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, the Papal States and the Duchy of Marche would also switch to the Spanish peseta.

To this end, Cruze promised some benefits to the countries, but so far no one has answered.

Because Austria-Hungary and even Britain and France sent people to find it, and everyone wanted to make this money.

Spain can only be said to have some advantages in this competition because of its privileges, and it is difficult to say who will die in the end.

It is worth mentioning that the Kingdom of Sardinia became a landlocked country after the independence of Liguria, and no one wants to see this scene.

This would mean not only the loss of a customer for the maritime nations, but also the entry of the Kingdom of Sardinia into the sphere of influence of France.

Thus, through the negotiation of all parties, the Kingdom of Sardinia was granted a medium-sized port called Porto Fino and its surrounding area east of the city of Genoa, and finally got rid of the embarrassing status of a landlocked country.
